New study on the collapse of WTC 7 ignored

A new draft report, A Structural Reevaluation of the Collapse of World Trade Center 7, sponsored by the Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, was published on 3 September.

The study comes to the conclusion that the collapse of World Trade Center 7 could not have been caused by fire (the official story), but that it was the result of a “global failure involving the near-simultaneous failure of every column in the building.”

This should have been all over the news, especially with the anniversary just around the corner, but the mainstream media have so far completely ignored the release of this report, despite a press conference being held at the National Press Club in Washington on 11 September where the newest modelling was also presented, and PR Newswire reporting the release of the report.

An international search of the print media via Thomson Reuters Westlaw news service shows that so far there have only been a handful of mentions of this significant report. The UK’s Daily Star and the Express, and The Asian Age are the only non-alternative news publications that have so far acknowledged the new report in some way. No major newspapers – none!

Some of the alternative news sources I know of that have written on the report are Truth in Media and The Corbett Report, as well as the German alternative media outlets Rubikon and KenFM, which have published the same article by Swiss peace researcher Daniele Ganser.

At least on Twitter a bit of a storm has broken out.

Whether you swallow the official story of 9/11 or not – the fact that a new report on a major event of that day is simply ignored by the mainstream media should make us all very worried about the state of the so-called 4th pillar of democracy.
